Too Good to Be True

Divvies Allergen-Free Treats

There are those who do the whole nondairy/nonanimal product thing by choice. To them we say, best of luck. We’ll just be over here enjoying our Easy Cheese and Slim Jims.

And then there are those with allergies who do it because they have no choice. Them, we feel for — that sucks.

But things are about to turn around, thanks to Divvies. The company’s treats are made without dairy, eggs, or nuts.

For an afternoon refreshment, try an oatmeal raisin, chocolate chip, or molasses cookie. Or take a goody bag filled with kettle corn, chocolates, jawbreakers, and gum balls to the movies. But the best bet is the website’s monthly delivery program, which will save you from scouring grocery store shelves and poring over labels for a safe indulgence.

However, there’s one food warning not listed on these boxes: Consumption and sharing may cause others around you to develop “allergies” as well.

Keep in a cool, dry, secret place.
